Crysis 3 and TR etc are undoubtedly the most realistic and hi fidelity offerings but I don't think that makes them look good or visually impressive. Ill take something with character and storytelling in its visual make up over photo realism any day. They don't have to be mutually exclusive of course, but they usually are. Gunslinger definitely gets the bid from me for that reason.

Why in the world is that "press B to skip" prompt showing permanently? It's madness. Ruins the picture completely. I remember some years ago when we were constantly getting annoyed by unskippable cutscenes, it seems the developers learned all the wrong lessons from that. Bonus: The game has unskippable cutscenes too, because who needs consistency right?

I've spent a couple hours this past week trying to get an enb dialed in for TR: Underworld. Lots of wonkiness involved. I finally got it looking pretty good though I think. It's nowhere near the difference of enb in Skyrim, but it does make an already gorgeous game just a bit better looking. I've dialed back the bloom a bit since this shot was taken. It was grabbed by my capture software's auto-screenshot and I liked it. It's a bit jaggy though. I think AA was only on 4x at the time. I had to bump it down from 8x for the room with the octopus in the level before. That stage has always stuttered on 8x for me, even in the vanilla game.

I completely screwed up my Skyrim and Nexus Mod Manager installation the other day. Wound up having to wipe the whole thing and start over, downloading the core game and ~60 mods. I was pissed at first, but now I'm glad to have done it. I have it working better than ever. I started a new character with the Live Another Life mod. I'm the lone survivor of a shipwreck off the northern coast. I scavenge what I can from the wreckage, and climb atop the upturned hull to take stock of my current situation. It's going to be a heck of a swim, but I've got no shortage of landmarks to head for in the distance.

Lonely out here, but beautiful.

Stopped to explore a different wreck on my way in to shore. It looked empty at first, but after checking every nook and cranny I found a couple gems lying about. Those will be good for some quick starting gold. I love finding tucked out of the way things like that in games.

Wouldn't be a bad place to stay, if you didn't mind the noisy horker neighbors.

I'm interested in a mod-list, good sir. Haven't played Skyrim since August, would be nice to check out what the community has done since.

Sure. Graphically, the only mods I have are this guy's enb, and every mod under his "Recommended Mods" section, save for lush trees and grass, and grass on steroids. I also chose the Realistic Lighting Overhaul option. I've got a few other favorite gameplay/interface mods if you're interested in those as well. But basically, just follow this guy's steps, and it will look just like my screens. You can PM me if you hit any snags.
